The Laws of ADIZ

After the confrontation and defiance by the US against China’s ADIZ, the
American State Department has issued a directive advising all American
commercial flights to heed the rules of the air zone. It also quickly
clarified that this did not amount to a recognition of the ADIZ and ‘Our
expectation of operations by US carriers…does not indicate US
government acceptance of China’s requirements for operating in the newly
declared ADIZ.’

This may not be an exceptional ruling applicable only to Americans or is
it an international law governing ADIZ, but it could set the norms for
every country to follow. It simply said that commercial flights have to
follow but military flights don’t have to. Or maybe it is saying only
American military flights can fly into other countries ADIZ and need not
follow their rules. This is the privilege of the Empire or the
gangster, depending on how one looks at it.

Is this American Imperial decree applicable on a reciprocal basis, that
other countries’ military aircraft can also fly into American ADIZ
without heeding their rules? At the moment not many countries can fly
their military aircraft into American ADIZs or have no reasons to do so.
Perhaps the Russians and the Chinese may want to put this to a test,
that it applies both ways, you can come and go like the Americans.

Would the Americans scramble their fighters to intercept the visitors
and wave to say hello, or would they take offensive measures like
shooting them down? If the Americans were to shoot down alien aircraft
in their ADIZs, then Russia and China could do the same. The rules have
to be equitable and apply to all nations that are seen as equals in the
UN Charter, big or small. No?

But the Empire may have its own laws that are above the UN Charter. In
that case, China would have to decide if it is able to take down
American military aircraft in its ADIZ and risk an open war with the
Empire. If it is not able to, it would have to buy for more time before
the playing field is level.

The Empire will have the last word. What is right and free to do for the
Empire is not right and free to do for those that are enemies of the
Empire. When would the Russians and Chinese put this Empire decree to a
litmus test?

America acts only in the (perceived) national interest of itself. This is the basis of American Exceptionalism.

Any US response to a threat -- perceived or real; any negotiation conducted over conflicting issues; the placement of any American govt assets anywhere in the world or in space -- any decision made in the global theater, even acts of "charity" or "relief", are ALL done (no exception) to secure American interest. Usually there's a BIG FAT CHEQUE of "foreign aid" thrown in.

America "negotiates" by using the very large ass-beating military stick to strike fear in to the "other party", and a bucket-load of on-going CASH as a greed-inducing carrot.

Use Fear and Greed. Make an offer they can't refuse. Mafia-style. And I mean style -- bullet-proof cars, bodyguards -- heavily armed, large entourage...make a fucking spectacle, front page news in every newspaper and website.

America will fuck your cuntree, as long as it is in America's interest.

On Dec 1, 1943, China, the United States and Britain issued the Cairo Declaration.

They agreed that "Japan shall be stripped of all the islands in the Pacific" it had seized or occupied since the beginning of World War I and "all the territories Japan has stolen from the Chinese, such as Manchuria, Formosa (Taiwan) and the Pescadores, shall be restored to the Republic of China".

The happenings in the Ang Mo Kio Town Council are outrageous. I am not going to elaborate as the details are everywhere. The similarities be...
